Description from the seller
Majestic decorative, historiated and pierced plate produced by the M.A.S. manufactory of Capodimonte.
The plate is handcrafted in relief with neoclassical-inspired cherub scenes; it is pierced and features colored and gold details. These decorative motifs are drawn from the typical Capodimonte decors, produced in the eighteenth century by the Richard Ginori manufactory of Doccia, the Royal Factory of Capodimonte, and other successful artisanal manufactories.
The M.A.S. Capodimonte brand is the leading player in the reissue of Capodimonte porcelain masterpieces. Active in the second half of the twentieth century, they produced many crafts inspired by Capodimonte porcelain, maintaining the technical skill and craftsmanship of the 18th-century creations.
The plate is in excellent condition, with no defects.
Measurements: 18 cm in diameter, 3.5 cm in height.
A very rare, prestigious object
Seller's Story
My name is Riccardo, I recently graduated in Art History from the University of Florence and I am passionate about porcelain. From tableware to artist vases, from figurines to tea and coffee sets, I am fascinated by the mastery and the ability of great artisans and designers who shape this so fragile material, turning a raw mass into masterpieces with a story to tell. During my years at university I became interested in the history of 19th- and 20th-century tableware art; today, every day, I work with prestigious porcelain pieces that always have something to say to me and to those who purchase them. Of my work I love that I can discover more about the objects I find as I travel around Italy, always learning something new. I always strive to convey to my clients this passion I have for the objects I sell, certain that each one of them has a story to tell: the story of who created it, the story of who preserved it, and the story of who will give it a new life.
